pros : not flying around like a bucket of turds in a whirlpool cons: still behind at halftime against the league leaders

We haven't folded, so I'm happy for that at least.

Bought Siem De Jong, we thought he'd be class. Soon turned out he was made of glass. Blondie?

Imagine if we survive. We'll be shitting it all summer that he'll walk because Ashley has pulled the rug from under him. Totally agree with your sentiment though. Ashley wouldn't have appointed him in the first place if that was tne case. You reckon ? Keeps us up. Has all the club onside, his stock is high, pushes for more than Ashley will go for. Benitez is holding a great hand at the moment and we know how well Ashley plays his. It seems every time we say "well surely even Ashley would realize X is a bad idea" he goes and does it anyway, because hey I'm Mr. built-sports-direct-from-the-ground-up-I-play-by-and-make-my-own-rules. But, should he keep us up, fucking off Benitez would be a level beyond. Like, irrecoverable.

cheers

had all day

ah shut up ya bunch of nancys. still want city to win. would have liked to see a wonder strike regardless

Wish that had gone in, jesus

You shoulda seen it T; he told the guy he'd have his other guy smack him. I could hardly believe it.

But I'm not even bald!

the mans goddamn twitter handle is blackie

Rafa's clearly been Keyser Soze'ing this whole situation to wrest control of a sleeping giant from the incompetent boob.

Missed a lot of this thread due to most of it going on during the workday, but does anyone know - or has anyone talked about - how long this was planned? Lots of rumors that flew about but when it came the day, he came in, his staff came in, they met and it was sorted. That's fairly unusual, even for a club that specializes in unusual.

The threat of impending relegation can be forgotten about for a few days while I enjoy this.

:lol: If talk of Rafa coming was mere crazy talk, talk of hba being brought back would be the kind of self-referencing fractal plotlines you spew 5 hours into a decent acid trip.

no need He already got one like? nee resale value

TV money innit? Can afford it I'm sure.

do NOT fuck this up lee goddamn. goddamn. so nervous.

It's got to be a photoshop, that's McClaren's jacket. Anyway, he is at St James', I've just seen video. Maybe they took it from him when they sacked him as a final fuck you

ARRRRRRHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why? What the fuck is wrong with him. It makes no sense. Should be the first question in the interview. "Rafa. Welcome to Newcastle. First ... What the fuck, man?"
